I wouldn't touch this site with a bargepole. As another WOT commenter pointed out "...just look at it". It's so badly designed it's horrific. Any reputable software distributor would hire a web designer, or even use a decent template. But this is like nothing I've ever seen. They obviously plan on it being successful though ... I note they have already purchased the domains for windows9downloads, windows10downloads and even windows11downloads. Good luck with that one.

The first thing I tried on this site was a Windows 7 logon background changer. No matter how hard you try, the setup wanted to install other dubious looking software.

It took me hours to clean my computer from the malware installed when I downloaded from this site.

I cannot comment on the exact reliability of this site. But for myself personally, I wouldn't trust it. There is not enough information regarding the products which leaves me feeling that people are being misinformed. I'm not a 'Rival' btw, I just know download sites and this is not reputable in my mind - just look at it.
